PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.

The financial information included herein should be read in conjunction
with the Financial Statements, including the Notes thereto.

                           Results of Operations

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1998 vs. Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997

     During the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the Company incurred
a net gain of $49,174 as compared to a net loss of $(42,895) for the
same nine months ended September 30, 1997, an increase in net income of
$92,069.  Interest income, net, for the period increased to $245,912, an
increase of $123,760 (or 101%) from $122,152 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997.  These increases are attributable primarily to an increase
in the Company's Mortgage Loan investments.  The Company's cost of funds
(i.e., interest expense) during this period increased $239,439 (or 102%);
i.e.,$475,169 for the nine month period ending September 30, 1998 as compared
to $235,730 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997.  This increase is
attributable to an increase in Notes Payable.  At September 30,1998, the
company had outstanding debt securities (Notes Payable) of $10,849,694, up
from $6,573,441 at September 30, 1997, an increase of 65%.

     The Company's general and administrative expenses for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 increased to $176,257 from $165,046 for the
same period ending September 30, 1997, an increase of 7%.  This is
attributable to the addition of two staff during this period in 1998.

     The Company is addressing the Year 2000 issue with its parent company, 
Evangelical Christian Credit Union, who is the data processing provider for 
the Company.  The Year 2000 issue was created by the decades-old computer 
practice of increasing data processing speed and reducing data storage 
requirements by using two digits to represent the year instead of four.  
This practice precipitates a potential problem as the year 2000 is entered:
Time-sensitive computer programs may recognize a date using "00" as the year
1900 rather than the year 2000.  The Company is tracking its Year 2000 
preparation in a database that includes software, hardware devices, vendors 
and interfaces.  Most critical time-sensitive systems will be compliant by 
the end of 1998.  Some remaining systems will be retired in 1999 as the 
Company installs new systems to better serve its investors.  Although new 
systems may be characterized as Year 2000 compliant by their vendors, the 
Company will not list them as compliant until they have been installed and 
tested.  All installed systems will be compliant by mid-year 1999.  Because
of the nature of their operations, the Company does not believe the ability
of Mortgage Loan recipients (primarily churches) to maintain payment schedules
will be materially impacted by the Year 2000 issue.  However, the failure of
several Mortgage Loan recipients to meet such payment schedules as a result of
the Year 2000 issue could have a material adverse effect on the Company's 
results of operation or financial position.  Though the Company does not 
expect the Year 2000 issue to have a material adverse effect on its result of 
operation or financial condition, there can be no assurances of that position.
Contingency plans include alternative vendors, alternative procedures and a
business recovery plan which is tested annually.  The business recovery plan
is designed for catastrophic events such as earthquakes or major fires, and
has application also to the Year 2000 issue.  Remediation costs associated
with Year 2000 have been minimal for the Company.  It believes remediation
costs will continue to be nominal through completion of Year 2000 compliance
in mid-1999.

                      Liquidity and Capital Resources

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1998 vs. Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997

     Net increase in cash during the nine months ending September 30, 1998
was $298,540, compared to a net decrease of $(91,201) for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997, a difference of $389,741.  Net cash provided by
operating activities totaled $54,183 for the nine months ended September 30,
1998, an increase of $81,807 over $(27,624) used by operating activities
during the nine months ended September 30, 1997.  This difference is
attributable primarily to an increase in net interest income from Notes
Receivable during the nine month period ending September 30, 1998 as compared
to the same period in 1997.

     Net cash used by investing activities totaled $(1,821,468) during the
nine months ended September 30, 1998, compared to $(4,271,834) used during the
nine months ended September 30, 1997, a decrease of $(2,450,366) or 57%.  
This difference is primarily attributable to a decrease in Notes Receivable
purchased during the nine month period ending September 30, 1998 as compared
to the same period in 1997.

     Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $2,065,824 for this
nine month period in 1998, a decrease of $2,142,433, or 51%, from
$4,208,257 provided by financing activities during the nine month period
ending September 30, 1997.  This difference is primarily attributable to
repayments on a line of credit and on Notes Payable during the nine month
period ending September 30, 1998 as compared to borrowings from that line of
credit during the same period in 1997.

     At September 30, 1998, the Company's cash, which includes cash reserves
and cash available for investment in the Mortgage Loans, was $418,526,
up from $69,202 at September 30, 1997, an increase of $349,324.
